Behind the Glasses
Chapter 23: I'm So Sorry...
Amelia’s POV
“……And so, It’s been 3 days since I left him. I haven’t eaten anything. Nor have had anything to drink. Should I go back?”
“Welp, if this so called Fiancé left a bruise on your arm from grabbing you, and hasn’t come to find you. And it’s been 3 days my dear. There is no reason to go back.”
I sat on that bench everyday talking to the same old man talking about not knowing where I’m going to go. "No. Keep it. To remind you where you belong." I could hear Harry’s voice in my head. That phrase replaying over and over again. I kept looking down at my ring and touching it.
“Thank you Mr. Collins.” I said giving him a hug
“Good bye dear. I shall pray for you.”
I walked away praying for myself. “God, please guide me home… where I belong. Where ever that may be…” I’m 2 hours away from home… driving. Walking… a day. Or 2…
Harry’s POV
“It’s been 3 days…”
“Well Harry. Have you even called her?”
“I uh.. Accidently broke her phone…”
“Ugh. Harry! Well. Have you even tried to find her?”
“No. I thought she would maybe come back.”
“Harry. Why do you care?... wait a minute. Harold. Are you inlove?!?”
“No… Yes. I don’t know. Gemma. What do I do?”
“Well if I was her. I would want you to come find me. Every girl wants her love to chase her.”
“No… You see… she is never coming back…”
“…..what did you do..?”
“Well. I.. uh… not even close to what I did to.. uh. You know. I only left a bruise.”
“My god. Harry Edward Styles. You haven’t changed a bit. Bye”
She hung up.
Fuck! I haven’t talked to Gemma for about 2 years. And now she hates me. I mean hey. At least it wasn’t as bad as I did to Becca. I am better now. She has no idea… “Harry if you loved me you would let me leave.” Was that a mistake? I hope God heard my prayers and brings her back to where she belongs… with me. If she wants me back I have to show tough love. Yeah… that’s it, Tough love. If she wants me back. She has to work for it. I will take her back. But, things will change.
Zayn’s POV
“Happy Birthday to you, happy birthday to you. Happy birthday dea-“
The music felt like it was fading away. She looked up at me smiling with embarrassment. I watched as she blew her candles out. The waiters walked away and she looked hysterical.
“I hate you!!” She said laughing
“No ya don’t!! Listen. Perrie, I’m sorry I ran out on you the other night… I got a call.”
“No. I saw what happened Zayn. Don’t worry. If I saw the one I love get proposed to. I would be upset to” She said biting into her cake.
Once she was done eating her cake we got into the car and left. A song came on. And she wanted me to sing it for her. I don’t know if I could. I have only sang to Amel- Ugh! Zayn fuck her. She hates you.
“Zayn please!!!! I lovee this song!”
“Fine…
“Give me love like her,
'Cause lately I've been waking up alone,
Pain splattered teardrops on my shirt,
Told you I'd let them go,”
As I sang, I swerved the car around some weird ass person. I laid on the horn and kept driving. She looked like a zombie. Ew I should of hit her. 10 points!!
“Oh Zayn! I forgot my purse at your house!”
“It’s okay, I’ll give it to you tomorrow”
We got to her house and we parked in her drive way. She sat there and smiled at me. I got nervous and unlocked the car door so she could get out. I walked her up to the door. Should I hold her hand? No. To fast. Should I put my arm around her shoulders? No. that’s weird. Oh I know. I out my hand on her waist and kept walking forward.
“ Thanks for being with me for my 17th birthday.”
“Yeah. Ha kinda weird your 17 and im 19. But its cool.”
She laughed and looked down at her feet. I looked down to. What was she looking at? She stepped closer to me and looked in my eyes. I got nervous. Shit. Shit. She bit her lip and smiled she came even closer. We were chest to chest. She put her arms around me and looked at my lips then back up at me. Oh god. The only girl I have kissed was Amelia… I put my arms around her waist and gave her a hug.
“Oh.. um. Okay. Good night Zayn…”
“Yep.”
Was that the wrong thing to do? I kept walking. I could feel her eyes beaming at me.
“Oh Zayn. By the way, that girl that we should of hit. Looked strangely like Amelia.” She yelled
“Why didn’t you fucking tell me?” I yelled back
I ran to the car as quick as I could and drove off. Shit. What road was it on? Route 498? Yes it was. It was around 12 at night. And I saw something on the side of the road…
“Amelia??” As I stopped the car
“AMELIA? Answer me!”
I walked slowly up to the body. I knelt down to side to find a pulse. There was one. Good... The body was skin and bone. Like she hasn’t ate in days… I flipped the girl’s hair off her face… A tear rolled down my face. “God. Give me strength to help my Amelia.”
“Don’t worry Amelia. I’ll save you” I whispered as I picked up her body
I put her in the car and drove back to my house. I picked her up and brought her inside the house. I laid her down on my bed and left her there while I went to go make some food for her.
Amelia’s POV
“huh….uh…” I opened my eyes and looked around I’m… I’m in Zayn’s bed…
“Oh you’re awake.” Zayn said coming in with breakfast
“Zayn...” I could barely speak
“Sh. Eat.”
He made eggs. Toast. Bacon. And orange juice. It all looked so good. I haven’t ate in 3 days. I started to get up so I could go pee. I had to go so bad. But Zayn made me sit back down to eat first.
“Zayn! I have to pee!!!”
“Here. Let me help you get up” He said walking fast to help me up
Zayn held my hand as I got up. I went to the bathroom and looked in the mirror. I look like shit. I tried to freshen up a little bit. But all I could look at was my ring… Should I take it off? If I do. I feel like I’m losing something I think I might love.
I got back out and I saw Zayn sitting next to the window. I sat down on the bed as he turned around to look at me. His face was full of sorrow. Zayn came over to me and sat next to me. He wasn’t looking at me though… he was looking at my arm… the bruise Harry left. His face turned into a stern look... then back to sorrow…
“My Amelia. What have you gotten yourself into…”
“I’m so sorry Zayn…”
Zayn’s POV
I stood up. I couldn’t sit there and think. All I want to do is hug her. And hold her. But I can’t. She told me she never wanted to see me. I didn’t save her to be my friend. I saved her to live. Ya know what. I’m sick of this. It’s time for her to experience tough love.
“Amelia. I know your sorry… you have changed so much… that maybe my feelings have to” I looked at Amelia. But she wasn’t looking at me
“What? It’s just a purse.” I said looking at it
“But it isn’t mine” Her voice cracking about to cry
Oh no. I need to hold her. No Zayn. Not this time.
“Yeah. Well. That ring isn’t mine.” I said looking at her.
Her eyes were filled with tears and she laid down on her side and started crying her eyes out. I saw her hand reach across the bed and placed her hand on the table. She let go of her fist and there. Was her ring. She pulled her arm back in and started to cry even more. No Zayn don’t give in. Don’t… No. Your wrong. My feelings for you have never left. I did.
“I’m sorry Amelia.”
“I’m so sorry Amelia”
“I’m so sorry Amelia… I love you”
“……And so, It’s been 3 days since I left him. I haven’t eaten anything. Nor have had anything to drink. Should I go back?”

“I uh.. Accidently broke her phone…”
“Ugh. Harry! Well. Have you even tried to find her?”
“No. I thought she would maybe come back.”
“Harry. Why do you care?... wait a minute. Harold. Are you inlove?!?”
“No… Yes. I don’t know. Gemma. What do I do?”
“Well if I was her. I would want you to come find me. Every girl wants her love to chase her.”
“No… You see… she is never coming back…”
